installation, the affected files are recompiled the first time
tmda-ofmipd runs with sufficient permissions. Force the recompile
during post-install to ensure the package tools record the right
checksums.
* Fixed a small bug in the auto-response rate limiting code that
choked on extremely long addresses.
(http://mla.libertine.org/tmda-users/2004-01/msg00375.html)
* Fixed a small bug in the X-Primary-Address header handling code that
was triggered by a broken MTA.
(http://mla.libertine.org/tmda-users/2004-01/msg00100.html)
* Fixed a bug in TMDAINJECT that caused Message-ID and Date headers to
differ when sending to multiple recipients.
* Fixed a bug that would cause pending message release to fail under
certain MTAs (particularily Exim) if the envelope sender was null <>.
pkgsrc changes:
* Add rc.d script for tmda-ofmipd.
* Create "tofmipd" user for tmda-ofmipd.
* Require Python 2.2 or higher, as needed by tmda-ofmipd.
* Use subst.mk to honor PKG_SYSCONFDIR.
* Set PKG_SYSCONFSUBDIR, as TMDA potentially has several config files.
* Update MASTER_SITES.
* Use shell globs to simplify some definitions.
* Remove MESSAGE, as TMDA provides its own upgrade instructions.
* Pass one file at a time to install(1) for the benefit of some of our
differently-abled platforms.
What's new?
* New feature: A new header called ``X-Primary-Address'' is now
supported in order to reduce the amount of thinking and planning
ahead you need to do when sending mail to a new correspondent who
may or may not use a challenge/response system like
TMDA. Essentially, this header allows a sender to specify the
address he prefers be whitelisted once he confirms his first
message.
For more information, see the following URLs:
<URL:http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#PRIMARY_ADDRESS_MATCH>
<URL:http://tmda.net/faq.cgi?req=show&file=faq04.005.htp>
* New feature. You can customize the header lines displayed by
tmda-pending in interactive mode by setting SUMMARY_HEADERS. See
<URL:http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#SUMMARY_HEADERS> for more
information.
* New version of Josh Huber's tmda.el.
* Bugfixes.
Here are the new additions to UPGRADE:
* If you are using customized templates, you should replace
%(envelope_sender)s with %(confirm_append_address)s in your
confirm_request.txt. This is to support the new
<URL:http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#PRIMARY_ADDRESS_MATCH>
feature.
* When doing program deliveries to procmail, you should no longer be
using the ``-f'' option. e.g,
DELIVERY = "|/usr/bin/procmail -f $SENDER ~/.procmailrc-tmda"
becomes
DELIVERY = "|/usr/bin/procmail ~/.procmailrc-tmda"
* contrib/sample.tmdarc has been renamed contrib/sample.config.
* New feature. TEMPLATE_DIR_MATCH_SENDER provides a way to further
specialize the template selection process. When enabled, TMDA looks
for templates in a subdirectory of TEMPLATE_DIR that matches the
sender address, and then increasingly general portions of the domain
part of the address. For more information and an example, see
<URL:http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#TEMPLATE_DIR_MATCH_SENDER>
* tmda-pending now allows messages to be specified on standard input
instead of the command line by using `-' instead of a message
list. See ``tmda-pending -h'' for an example. Thanks to Michael
S. Fischer for the patch.
Only accept Python 2.2, as the PLIST is incorrect for 2.1 (due to one
file failing to compile).
* Python version 2.1 or greater is now required. Upgrade at
<URL:http://www.python.org/download/>
* When sending an auto response, a new configuration variable
(AUTORESPONSE_INCLUDE_SENDER_COPY) is used to control whether a copy
of the sender's message is included or not. For available options,
<URL:http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#AUTORESPONSE_INCLUDE_SENDER_COPY>
If you are using customized templates, you should remove the last
few lines in each template which include the sender's copy. For
example, in confirm_request.txt:
--- Enclosed is a copy of your message.
%(original_message)s
Otherwise, you'll include two copies of the sender's message.
* When sending confirmation requests, Reply-To is now set from the
confirm_request.txt template. This is to allow the option to not
include the confirmation address in a Reply-To header.
If you use a customized confirm_request.txt, you'll need to add the
following line to the top (header section) of your template:
Reply-To: %(confirm_accept_address)s
extension Makefile fragments, because they really don't have anything to
do with the buildlink[12] frameworks. Change all the Makefiles that use
application.buildlink.mk and extension.buildlink.mk to use application.mk
and extension.mk instead.
* New -A option for tmda-ofmipd to allow authentication against
checkpassword compatible programs such as checkpassword-pam
(http://checkpasswd-pam.sourceforge.net/).
* New -C option for tmda-ofmipd to set a limit on the number of
simultaneous connections. Default is 20.
* tmda-ofmipd general bugfixes and security improvements.
* New config variable, `X_TMDA_IN_SUBJECT' which turns on parsing of
the Subject header for X-TMDA override actions. See description in
Defaults.py for more information.
* New config variable, `ADDED_HEADERS_SERVER' which allows you to add
arbitrary headers to all server-sent (i.e, tmda-filter) messages.
* Josh Huber's tmda.el, an elisp module for integrating TMDA with Gnus
and Message mode, has been added to the contrib directory. This is
super-cool, Jason sez check it out!
* Major improvements to the filter file language, courtesy of Tim,
including:
- The addition of "macro" definition and expansion.
- The addition of variable interpolation.
- A new argument, `-optional', for all rules that access files.
- Support for nested filter files with the 'include' statement.
For more information on these new features, see the updated TMDA
Filter Specification (http://tmda.net/config-filter.html).
* Logging capability for client-side message (i.e, those sent with
tmda-sendmail). Set LOGFILE_OUTGOING in your config to enable this.
* New version of tmda.el.
* Fixed a bug which prevented the `from/to-mailman' filter sources
from working.
Changes to the package itself:
- Update MASTER_SITES and HOMEPAGE.
- Change iterator variables to something other than "file" to
placate pkglint.
From the changelog:
* 'keyword' addresses now use an identifying string like 'dated' and
'sender' addresses do. 'keyword' by default, and customizable via
TAGS_KEYWORD. This means you'll need to generate new addresses
using `tmda-address', as your old ones will no longer work.
If you want your old keyword addresses to be accepted until you can
transition to the new format, you can add entries for them in your
FILTER_INCOMING. e.g,
to jason-promos.8d06eu@mastaler.com ok
to jason-stupid_promo.289j76@mastaler.com ok
* RECIPIENT_DELIMITER is no longer allowed to be part of the keyword
in a keyword address. `?' will be substituted for it when a new
keyword address is created.
* The format for a confirmation request address is now:
RECIPIENT-confirm-TIMESTAMP.PID.HMAC, instead of
RECIPIENT-confirm-accept.TIMESTAMP.PID.HMAC
The new format is detailed in CRYPTO. Because of this change, it's
recommended that you run tmda-pending to make sure your queue is
free of legitimate messages, since the old confirmation addresses
will no longer work.
If you are unable to do this and need temporary backward
compatibility with the old format, there is a patch against 0.56
available at:
<URL:http://mla.libertine.org/tmda-users/200206/msg00193.html>
* Confirmed messages are now reinjected to the original envelope
recipient address (RECIPIENT) rather than to:
RECIPIENT-confirm-done.TIMESTAMP.PID.HMAC
See CRYPTO for more details.
* TMDA now sends outgoing mail by handing it off to an SMTP server
instead of the /usr/sbin/sendmail program. By default it will use
the standard SMTP port (25) on the local host. You can modify this
by setting the "SMTPHOST" variable in your tmdarc. See
TMDA/Defaults.py for further information.
* tmdarc variable SENDMAIL has been renamed SENDMAIL_PROGRAM, but is
irrelevant unless OUTGOINGMAIL = "sendmail".
* tmdarc variable PURGED_HEADERS now lists "Bcc:" and "Resent-Bcc" by
default. If you define this variable in your tmdarc, be sure to add
these two headers.
* CRYPT_KEY should be removed from ~/.tmdarc or ~/.tmda/config. Your
secret key is now read from CRYPT_KEY_FILE, which defaults to
~/.tmda/crypt_key. To make this conversion, move your existing
CRYPT_KEY to ~/.tmda/crypt_key, but without the double-quotes. e.g,
if CRYPT_KEY = "df7a18a8d95f02ff94bf6463a8ec214cf20cb9e8"
~/.tmda/crypt_key should contain:
df7a18a8d95f02ff94bf6463a8ec214cf20cb9e8
* ~/.tmdarc and ~/.tmda/config are no longer checked for file
permissions. Instead, make sure ~/.tmda/crypt_key is chmod 400 or
600 (or 640 if ALLOW_MODE_640 = 1).
* An exception is no longer be raised if ~/.tmdarc or ~/.tmda/config
is missing. However, a ~/.tmda/crypt_key file is required.
* tmda-keygen now outputs an unquoted key instead of a CRYPT_KEY line.
* Template variables dated_cookie_address and sender_cookie_address
were replaced with dated_recipient_address and
sender_recipient_address, which are based on the RECIPIENT address.
* Tighter integration of the local delivery code. An external LDA
like procmail is now required only if you are running Sendmail.
Further, if you are driving TMDA with procmail, you no longer need
to maintain a second procmailrc (e.g, ~/.procmailrc-tmda) for final
delivery.
* Improvements to the mailing list filter file sources.
* Bugfixes.
* New ``--terse-summary'' option to tmda-pending which can be used as
an alternative to ``--summary''. See ``tmda-pending -h'' for more.
* New tmdarc options PENDING_DELETE_APPEND and PENDING_RELEASE_APPEND
which define filenames to which the sender address will be appended
when a message is deleted or released by tmda-pending. This can be
used for example to update your white/blacklist from tmda-pending.
* In addition to ~/.tmdarc, ~/.tmda/config is now a valid location for
your TMDA configuration file.
* Performance improvements.
* Bugfixes.
* Messages in the pending directory are no longer deleted after they
are confirmed (or released) and delivered. Now they are simply
noted in the DELIVERED_CACHE file.
* BOUNCE_TEXT_ALREADY_CONFIRMED has been deprecated.
* The confirm_accept.txt template has been modified. The message body
of the notification is no longer hardcoded, but rather stored in
%(confirm_accept_text)s, which comes from one of the following
tmdarc variables depending on context:
CONFIRM_ACCEPT_TEXT_INITIAL
CONFIRM_ACCEPT_TEXT_ALREADY_CONFIRMED
CONFIRM_ACCEPT_TEXT_ALREADY_RELEASED
* Custom templates are now referred to by a template directory rather
than individually. Any templates found in this directory will be
used, otherwise the default templates will be used. You can specify
a custom template directory in one of two ways:
A TEMPLATE_DIR setting in your tmdarc. This replaces use of
CONFIRM_ACCEPT_TEMPLATE and CONFIRM_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.
tmda-filter's -t option, which replaces both -A and -R.
* The 'unquoted' and 'parens' options to MESSAGE_FROM_STYLE have been
deprecated. 'angles' now double-quotes the fullname only when
necessary.
Changes:
* TMDA has acquired the ability to handle local mail delivery itself.
It can now do safe and reliable delivery to qmail-style Maildirs and
mboxrd-format mboxes, as well as program (pipe) delivery, and
forward to a different e-mail address.
* Added an -autodbm argument to the 'from-file' and 'to-file' filter
sources to match the existing -autocdb capability. -autodbm
automatically maintains a DBM file for the specified TMDA list file.
No more rebuilding your DBM files by hand, cron, or scripting.
* Added the ability to use 'from*' rules in outgoing filters.
See the TMDA Filter Specification for details.
* Lots of internal reorganization.
